In a bid to check drug abuse on campus, the University of Lagos has provided a drug test kit in its medical centre to examine students suspected to be on hard drugs.

Prof. Rahaman Bello, outgoing Vice-Chancellor of the institution, confirmed this at a forum with News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Lagos.

Bello said that the initiative was necessary because drug abuse was on the increase in the nation’s tertiary institutions.

“Drug abuse is a major problem for every institution, particularly, those in the cities. We have gone ahead in the University of Lagos to address it.

“With the test kit, anyone who is suspected, his or her urine or blood depending on what we want to do, is collected for test.
“The thing about drug is that when you take it, it will be in your blood for a long time, so you cannot say , I did not use it once the test kit detects it.
“Before, we start using the test kit, everyone we picked denied using drug since we could not find any evidence,” he said.

According to him, with the test kit, the university has been able to pin down victims, but granted them amnesty.

He said that although the university’s regulation provided that any student found dealing with drug should be expelled, the management had to warn and rehabilitate them.

“With the rehabilitation, the victims are given two or three semesters to ‘get clean’. By this, we mean they will visit the medical centre on monthly basis to get tested.
“If after two or three visits, you are found clean, we will admit you back to the system, if not you are sent out.
“This we do not to unnecessarily punish them, but to assist them to find a way to regain themselves,” he said.

Bello said that about 100 students of the university were detected to be using hard drugs in 2016.

Myths And Truths About Epilepsy

1. A person can swallow the tongue during epilepsy attack.

It is physically impossible to swallow your own tongue.

2. You must force something in the mouth of someone who has an attack.

Absolutely not! That’s a good way to chill teeth, puncture the gums, be mordant or even break someone’s jaw. The correct first aid is simple.

Before UNILAG thought of this idea,so many private universities in the country have put it to use. Why do you think they expel students in private universities on a constant basis? That's cos some of them test positive to drug tests when being suspected, so, UNILAG should brag about being the first public university to do so and not the First in Nigeria as u think.

First it was "UNILAG is the only university in Nigeria with permanent accreditation for law".

Next, it was "UNILAG becomes first Nigerian University to get a TV license".

Now, it's the first Nigerian University to start testing students for use of hard drugs.

Who else thinks UNILAG really deserves all the hype it gets? I'm not asking bloody haters.


90% of private schools carry out drug tests so they are not the first

As laudable as it might look, I'm not in support of this testing. There are serious chain of custody issues be that may arise.

Good move. Hard drugs has eaten deep into the minds of a lot of youth in tertiary institutions.

Some even mix different brands(without considering consequences) just to show off their drinking capacities.

Only God can save the upcoming generation.

The way girls gulp codeine these days, I doubt boys can measure up.

Imagine me offering a girl a bottle of drink yesterday and she was like " I don't drink" only for me to see the bar guy slip something to her and next she turning the content inside the soft drink she ordered for.

Exyplon Codeine and dear Arthur Guinness which one better pass? undecided

The day I took that shiit, it was like I forgot my brain somewhere, I just dey dose and not like I was sleeping o, just dosing and starting awake in shock grin . Guess my brain is too weak for it.

This may come from a good place but its a gross violation of privacy, when its done without consent. Only in Nigeria.

You're part of the problem. The endless strikes and continuous victimisation of students which is a regular practice in public universities and almost non existent in private schools now makes the latter inferior to the former, right?

Sometimes I think Nigerians deserve the kind of wicked leaders we have. We embrace suffering thinking "it makes us tough" and we abhor sanity. Indeed the leaders are an immediate reflection of the masses.

What did I just hear you say?

Hard drug testing DOES NOT and SHOULD NEVER require consent before it is done. I guess you're one of the accused tho'

Silly child. You didn't 'hear' me say anything. You read my comment (although it appears you lack the capacity to understand).
Let me simplify my comment for your iq level: Private drug tests are ILLEGAL when conducted without the consent of the subject. It is a clear breach of the Fundamental Right to Privacy guaranteed by Section 37 of the 1999 Constitution. The schools that insist on such practices require that subjects sign a consent or waiver form. This means that only a prosecuting authority can mandate a test, and it has to be done in the course of prosecuting an offence.

You don't need to advertise your stupidity to the world, "accused"?? Where did you read that the Nigerian Police or NDLEA was involved? Or that anyone was charged for an offence? You must be high on cheap substances.
Get off your keyboard and go'an read your books.
